Low, Medium or High.
n
n
When the dial is in place a red light will illuminate on top of the
appliance to indicate that the power is on.

the
optimal
temperature, the green
posiction
1:1
light will illuminate to indicate the appliance is ready to cook.
n Place the ingredients on the bottom plate. Close the lid and lock the
handle.
n It may take a few seconds for the green light to switch off. This is
normal.
n The green light runs on a thermostat and indicates when the product is
up to temperature. As part of the cooking cycle the light will go on and
off during this process. You will need to assess if the food is cooked by
lifting the lid.
n When you are happy the food is cooked, remove it by gently
loosening the edges with a heat-proof plastic spatula. Never use
metal utensils, as they may damage the non-stick coating.
N.B. The first time you use the appliance, it may have a slight odour
and may smoke a little. This is normal and common to appliances with
a non-stick surface.

Hints & Tips
Using the Sandwich Maker
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
The Sandwich Maker has been designed with a handle that locks down
to secure the contents when cooking.
Always preheat your Cuisinart Sandwich Maker completely before
using.
The lid of the sandwich maker should be closed whilst preheating.
The sandwich plates measure 14cm x 13.5cm and are designed to
accommodate breads of all shapes and sizes.
Breads longer than 14cm can easily be toasted lengthwise or
diagonal. Breads can also be sliced from whole loaves.
Butter, and olive oil are recommended for coating the outside of bread
when making sandwiches.
“Light/Low Fat” versions of margarines are not recommended as
they do not withstand heat (check manufacturer’s labels for cooking
recommendations for best results).
Butter at room temperature is more suitable when spreading on bread,
or melt and apply with a pastry brush. For best results, moist
ingredients such as sliced tomatoes or fruits, pickles, etc., should be
blotted or patted dry with a paper towel.
11
Cleaning & Maintenance

Once you have finished cooking, turn the selector control to the ‘Off’
position, unplug the power cord from the mains, allow the appliance
to cool for at least 30 minutes before handling.

Do not use metallic objects such as knives when cleaning. This will
damage the non stick coating. Use wooden or heatproof plastic

soft, dry cloth. For tough stains dampen cloth. Never use an abrasive
cleaner or harsh pad.
